PROFI – Backwash Protective Filter to protect your installation
The “Water Works” department does an exceptional job in filtering and purifying our city water supply, unfortunately from the time it leaves the various pumping/storage stations and enters into the underground plumbing network, (infrastructure) which distributes the water to our homes, buildings, schools and places of business; it is subject to changes and contamination.
Most if not all of the cities water mains are made of steel and/or cast iron. Given the age of these pipes, corrosion remains the biggest problem. Corrosion in our city water mains leads to rust build-up within them, which eventually is swept into our water supply due to the disruption of water pressure and by the many broken water mains.
Particulate Matter and other physical impurities in our water supply can have a significant detrimental impact on the cost of building maintenance and operation, especially with the progressively smaller water usage due to Low Consumption faucets, showers, toilets and Green (LEED) Products.
The Physical Impurities that are introduced into our city water supply, which include rust, sand, dirt, and gravel to name a few, are a direct result of the constant occurrence of city water main breaks, causing the following plumbing problems and more.
The Solution:
The JUDO PROFI Self-Cleaning Backwash Water Filter and the JUDO PROFIMAT Automatic Self-Cleaning Backwash Water Filter are filtration systems which are recommended and installed at the Point-Of-Entry of the water supply to your building.
They filter out all coarse and fine-grained physical impurities/particulate from your buildings water supply, flushing them all to the drain automatically.
Available from ¾“ thru 8“ pipe sizes, able to handle water flow rates of up to 880 gallons per minute with a minimal pressure loss under 3 PSI.

A backwash is initiated based on a time setting (hourly, daily, weekly or monthly), the pressure differential feature over-rides the time setting should a backwash cycle be required sooner than the time intervals preset. All this is performed automatically without the interruption to the water supply or filtration process.
